Whatever. To me, it's a tech gadget, not a fashion accessory. Especially the aluminum model, which is the least expensive. I really don't care what it looks like, as long as it's comfortable to wear.
True, but we're viewing this head on (and so we're not seeing the part that slides in). This will be true of both standard and Space Black SS models. I don't think one is more mismatched than the other.
Agree, though the lighting is rather odd in that image.
I just find it funny, how some people are saying anything less than totally perfection is unacceptable and why this means Apple designed will be THE premium and most perfect, when we see, even their items, when you look, are not that great either.
Honestly. I am 100% sure, if the image I posted above was showing a 3rd party strap from Ebay, we would have a couple here (naming no names) saying it was cheap Chinese rip of junk.
But they won't, as they know it's Apple's official products.
Personally I don't care if it's Apple or Hong Kong Fooey made.
if YOU like it, you have it.
Even it it's a mic of Gold, Silver, Brass, Copper and Bright Orange.
Most of these watches are going to look all the dam same anyway, and is going to be a problem.
Let's see how many of the rich and famous still want to show them off when there are tens of millions of people all with the same watch as them, unlike now, when they can feel special and show it off as they have one and you don't
The more customisation, which will come from 3rd party straps, the better.
It would be great if a 3rd party could custom colour the body also. Tricky, but would be great.
